I sit here in this moment
Reminiscing through memories of the past year
Moments created
Trips taken
Adventures right around the corner

There was growth
Wings spread
Flight
Soaring higher than I even imagined
I learned how to fly, all on my own

I am grateful for my photographs
They tell the tales of where I have been
What I have encountered
What I triumphed over
And what filled my heart with love

Moments with friends
Deep conversations
Brainstorming ideas
Love, light, laughter
Sitting by the fire, appreciating the beauty of the moment

Years seem to go by with the blink of an eye
The warm sun soothes my skin
And then before I know
The cold days of december rush in
Another year under my belt

Bidding farewell to a year is bittersweet
Happy for the time and the space to create
Grateful to have been here to witness it all
Sad it is coming to a close and a new year begins
A fresh start, a clean slate, a new chance to get it right

I am looking forward to 2013
Excited about new adventures
Getting my act together
Creating the life of my dreams, each and every day
And soaking in the beauty around me

What has moved you in 2012?
What are you looking forward to in 2013?
I would love to hear all about it.

The cold days of winter have us hunkering down
Staying inside where it is cozy and warm
Twinkle lights on
Music playing
Hearts singing
Feet dancing
Cuddling up close
Sharing stories
Laughing
Be together with one another
Simple times create beautiful days

In this very moment
Reach out to someone you love
Let them know how much they mean to you
Hold there hand
Give them a hug
Be right there with them
Soak each other in

Know that you are deeply loved
The world needs to see your sparkle and your shine
You provide light to everyone around you
You are a guide for others
You are needed here in this world
And you matter
You are beautiful

Believe in yourself
Believe in who you are
Know that you possess the power to make positive change
You bring smiles to peoples faces
And laughter deep into others hearts
You showing up each day
Is important, so very important

Celebrate each other
Give thanks
High fives
Show gratitude
Laugh
Have fun
Enjoy this extremely precious life

It can be so easy to get upset over words said
Comments made
But the truth is
I love these guys
They are my world
They make me laugh that side splitting kind of laughter
And no matter where we stand
No matter what was said
If they called me in the middle of the night and needed something
I am there, wherever there is
We grew up together
They teased me mercilessly
But they also had my back
They stood with me in the kitchen in the middle of the night
Telling me they loved me, and that they were glad I was home
They worked along side me
And let me tag along at Yankees Games
They are my brothers
And they are amazing
I adore who they are
And who they have grown into
They are strong, compassionate, and loving
And they all have an amazing sense of humor
When I am around them I am always laughing
I am lucky to have them in my life
And so incredibly grateful
We may not always agree
There may be moments where we don't understand one another
But we are always there for each other
And we know that
We are family, and always will be
And we are so happy for that
I am so grateful for each of them
And all that they bring to my life
